Great closeup & framing of shot...

It is cropped to portrait so the wings do not detract from other fieldmarks , but it could be a tad sharper. Guess I was at the end of the closenness range and handheld photography anyay. This is a rather big butterly, the largerst occuring here, but that face is still tiny.
